It also requires students to com A two-fol- d non-busine- ss plete their freshman and sophomore years before they can declare business their major and enter the college. According to Dr. Blaine Huntsman, Dean of the College of Business, the changes have two objectives. The first is to facilitate those students not enrolled in the business program but who desire to pick up some credits in the business field. Since 1974, the demand u for classes in the College of Business has more than doubled, and a lot of it comes from students not matriculated in the College of Business. As a result of the increased demand from outside the college, many of the changes make it easier to register for lower level business courses. But Huntsman is quick to point out the changes are not designed to dampen the demand for business courses.

Huntsman said before the changes were in effect, the college had a lot of problems with graduating seniors being crowded out of classes they needed to graduate. The other objective of the cirriculum changes is to correct what Huntsman terms the narrowness of a business That a student's education. college should give its students a broadbased education is one theory about higher education which I agree.
